Chapter 46 The two apprentices are very arrogant

When Li Shimin saw Ma Zhou sweating all over, he couldn't help but quip: "Your name is Ma Zhou, right? Why do you feel sweaty when you see me?"

Ma Zhou is actually a big heart, but that is Ma Zhou after exercise.

Ma Zhou is still far from the point where Mount Tai collapsed on the top of the future generations without changing his expression.

When Li Shimin asked, he couldn't help but answer.

At this time, Su Haoran couldn't help but say, "Grandpa, Ma Zhou saw his grandfather's majesty, and was anxious in the war, and sweated like a slurry."

Li Shimin glanced at Su Haoran and couldn't help but quip: "Why didn't Shangguan Yi sweat when he saw me? Don't he think I am majestic?"

Su Haoran immediately said: "Shangguan Yi was in a panic in the war and did not dare to sweat."

Su Haoran's words made Li Shimin laugh.

Changsun Wuji and others also laughed loudly.

Ma Zhou and Shangguan Yi quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, I admire their prodigy more and more.

They had heard various legends about the master before.

Nothing was experienced by them personally, and they were half-believing and half-doubted.

Now, they were finally on the scene and personally participated. They were impressed by the master's ability to change his mind.

At this time, Li Shimin couldn't help but ask Ma Zhou and Shangguan Yi: "Some time ago, I ordered the court officials to write a letter to discuss the gains and losses of the court affairs."

"Although you are not an official, you might as well talk about your opinions."

Li Shimin's problems surprised and happy both Ma Zhou and Li Shimin.

Their path of becoming a disciple of a child prodigy is indeed the right one.

Not only did he quickly get the opportunity to meet the saint, but the saint also gave the questions and test them himself.

As long as the assessment can make His Majesty feel satisfied, they will immediately get a chance to rise to the top.

However, being with the king is like being with a tiger, they are also afraid that they will be punished if they say the wrong words.

The two exchanged glances, and then Ma Zhou couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, Caomin followed his master and studied behind closed doors. He did not know the world, so he dared not talk nonsense."

Li Shimin smiled and said, "This is just a chat. I'll ask you something. If you don't worry, just say it."

What Ma Zhou was waiting for was Li Shimin's words.

Hearing this, Ma Zhou immediately said, "Your Majesty, I have had some shallow views in my spare time. I am talking nonsense, and Your Majesty listened nonsense."

"First, Caomin believes that Your Majesty must deal with the problems of the kings well. Your Majesty must not inherit the kings."

"Once the unworthy descendants of their descendants are inherited, the people will suffer and the country will suffer. The division of the feudal family will definitely leave a hidden danger of destruction for future generations."

"If you love the kings, you must be kind. In the past, Cao Cao spoiled Cao Zhi, which in turn implicated Cao Zhi and was imprisoned in prison after Cao Pi became emperor."

"The second point is that Your Majesty must resolve the relationship between the close servants. The people of the grass secretly believe that they can reward them heavily, but it is not appropriate to increase their ranks, nor should they be allowed to participate in the government affairs."

"Third, the people of the grass hope that His Majesty can be frugal and give others kindness."

"Fourth, Caomin hopes that His Majesty can attach importance to the selection of state and county officials. The final implementers of national policies are these officials."

"If these officials choose non-human policies, no matter how good the policies are, they will not be truly implemented, and the people will not benefit."

"These are some of my inappropriate opinions and inappropriate things. I would like to ask Your Majesty to redeem me for disrespect."

When Ma Zhou finished speaking, Li Shimin's face was full of shock.

Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others were also very shocked.

The first thing they were shocked was that Ma Zhou really dared to say it.

They all knew about the problems of the kings Del and the problems of the close servants.

But even Changsun Wuji didn't dare to raise such questions in front of Li Shimin.

The third point is fine, but the fourth point is something that even they have not taken into account.

This Ma Zhou is actually very talented!

Li Shimin couldn't help but look happy when he picked up the treasure.

Next, Li Shimin looked at Shangguan Yi again and asked him: "Shangguan Yi, I wonder what your opinion?"

Shangguan Yi couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, I think that if there are any omissions in the imperial examination, I cannot truly be fair and just."

boom!

Shangguan Yi's words were like a thunder blew up in front of everyone.

The two apprentices of the little prodigy are really bolder than the other, and the other dare to speak.

Just now, Ma Zhou dared to talk about the problems of the kings and his servants, but this is even more bold, and he dared to talk about the problems of the imperial examination.

You know, it is a national policy to select scholars in the imperial examinations.

If you talk nonsense, you may not do it well, but you will lose your head.

Even Li Shimin's face showed a look of surprise.

Li Shimin couldn't help asking: "Shangguan Yi, do you think there are any omissions in the imperial examination? I want to listen."

The imperial examination can be said to be a great creation initiated by the Sui Dynasty.

Because he gave ordinary people a ladder to advance.

Passing the imperial examination can greatly impact the aristocratic families.

The imperial examination has not been held for too long.

If there are any omissions in the imperial examination, Li Shimin thinks there will definitely be some.

No policy can be perfect.

But Li Shimin didn't think that there were really major omissions in the imperial examination.

If so, can none of the civil and military officials be able to see it?

No one reported to me?

Li Shimin wanted to see if this bold scholar could really point out the flaws.

Then, he heard Shangguan Yi say, "Your Majesty, Caomin thinks that the first omission of the imperial examination is that the imperial examination is held once a year."

"But my Tang Dynasty is vast and rich in resources. If I came to Chang'an City from the border of the Tang Dynasty, it may not be enough for a year."

"Even if it is a candidate from the middle ground, it will take more than half a year to go back and forth. In this way, how can these candidates still have time to study?"

"The second point is that the admission of candidates depends entirely on the preferences of the examiner. As long as the examiner likes it, even before the exam, he can directly decide to admit a certain candidate."

"And this also led to a trend of visiting the examiner before the exam."

"After this, it is enough for candidates to please the examiner before the exam. Do they still need to study hard?"

"Third, even after passing the imperial examination, it is not immediately granted an official position. Instead, the Ministry of Personnel will have to conduct another assessment."

"And the assessment of the Ministry of Personnel is basically about official documents."

"Where do you have the opportunity to get in touch with these children in poor families?"

"Therefore, candidates who can pass the Ministry of Personnel's assessment are still children of aristocratic families."

"It's still difficult for poor children to make a comeback."

"This is the simple view of the people, I hope your Majesty will clearly observe."
